My village – I admire the most
Intoduction
Mahatma Gandhi once said that the soul of India lives in its villages. The statement holds true even today, as 65% of the Indian population resides in my village areas. My village is not only a geographical location. It’s a microcosm of rural India, where old traditions and customs and history exist with modern aspirations. It offers a window into a complex reality of development, science, social cultures, economic challenges, and natural resources with a growing mindset, view and its cultural vibrancy is the defined India’s village.
The landscape and its cultural ethics
My village is nestled amidst green paddy fields, and there are small green forests, a river, natural resources, and clean roads. Natural, modest beauty is captivating. Life flows the rhythm of nature, the sunrise marks the beginning of the day for people’s agricultural activities in the village, while the sunset gathering near the village pond and community point. Socially every village is deeply rooted in traditional cultural ethics of India. In our village, we celebrate the festivals of Rath Yatra, Deepavali, Holi, Raja Sankranti, Nuakhai, and Prathamastami with great love and celebrations, uniting people across social divisions in classes. A temple in my Village for the weekly Heart or market service, the nerve center of social interaction where people gather and interact with each other for their daily lives, and local governance through the Panchayat systems reflect Indian democracy in the heart of the India.
Economic realities, agriculture, and beyond
Most of the Indian village, like our Parras economy predominantly agrarian they mostly work in fields and defence and cultivation is vegetable farming and small scale of people are government employees on different sectors and diary. Farms challenges like irregular monsoons of modern irrigations, natural calamities and defendant on the middleman for crop cell. Have keep the farmers in a cycle of economic uncertainty. Over the past decade is slow. Transition has behave non-activities like poetry, farming, pet shops, business, small manufacturing units are emerging. Fewer migrated to nearby towns for financial upgrading. The implementation of rural skins like Odisha government has provided some relief. Some sustainable employment remains elusive on themselves . As my village is most dependent on agriculture, so farmers are working for their fields for six months and other six month, they used to stay in their house and rest, but next six month during agriculture work hard, extremely hard work hard in their field to grow crops.
Infrastructure progress and gaps
A noticeable improvement have taken place in rural connectivity village now has pakka Road electricity 5G network coverage. However the progress is only even Delhi leaving things and materials are always available like shops, medical hospital, market, school, community, Centres office.
In my village, educational facilities are now expanded here. Primary education to graduation. Education are available with quality teachers and peaceful environment. Lots of student are completing their secondary education and graduation with flying colours. Most of student even are getting in government jobs and many sectors like defence and banking teaching in many others is having 5G connectivity in there, there is digital literacy also continue for student and online resources are available for them.
Social challenges and emerging change
Rotate social issues like discrimination, gender inequalities, and superstitions. They are not missing in my village, but there is few caste. Discrimination is gender inequalities are there. are there government interventions self-help groups , mens collectives have increased exposure to urban lifestyles and have started shifting mindsets, particularly among the young generations, and awareness programs of school and educational institutes are helping to change and grow their mindsets. Women in my village who were once confined to household responsibilities are now gradually participating in self-income-generating activities and local governance and understand the responsibilities of Indian citizens and the duty of a persons in village and town. There is an emerging aspirations among the youth for higher education. Social communications, jobs, modified live, which led to increasing rural to urban migrations.
My perspective, the need for inclusive rural development
My village is reminder that development is not a uniform process while government focus on GDP growth and infrastructures rural India legs in SS2 quality healthcare. Education is sustainable livelihood to meet their daily needs during value of products are high so rising. This cafe bridging bridge bridging. This gap requires bottom of planning that understand the unique challenges of villages. The reasons of Graham Swaraj Village self role as in Bhaage by Mahatma Gandhi can only realise the villagers are empowered through effective implementation of rural employment scheme, second strengthening primary healthcare and educational institutions. Third, strengthening agricultural productivity through modern techniques and market linkages, fourth promoting and empowering women’s participation in decision-making bodies. Strengthening village level institutions and governance is essential for telling development initiatives to the real needs of villagers.
Conclusion
